Before I can dig deeper on this, I have a simple question: in the case of galaxy dynamics, we are not talking about frames but 'snapshots', where each snapshot contains the information of each star inside a galaxy (mass, position, velocity, gas composition, etc.), i.e. the state  of the galaxy at some time.

I am quite sure it can be done. WHat I wonder is how gstreamer might help you.
For multimedia it gives you data flow synchronisation and format negotiation
(and other things). I am not sure you would need those. What would be left is
the plugin framework and some developments support.
